Defensive end DeMarcus Ware could miss Sunday's game against Philadelphia, but he has not been ruled out and could be cleared to practice later in the week, sources said.

Ware suffered a strained thigh muscle in the second quarter of the team's win over Washington. While there are reports that the Pro Bowl defender could miss three to four weeks, club officials insist his timetable is day-to-day. He will be checked again Wednesday to see what, if anything, he will be cleared to do in practice.

It has been a tough start physically on Ware to open this season. He has already dealt with a stinger, back spasms and took an IV for cramping before this injury.
